Three Texas House Democrats who fled to Washington, D.C., to block the passage of a sweeping elections overhaul bill have tested positive for COVID-19.
The caucus said in a statement that one member tested positive for COVID-19 late Friday evening.
That member immediately informed the rest of the caucus, and members and staff then took rapid testS.
Saturday morning, two additional members of the caucus tested positive, the statement said.
The caucus didn’t release the names of the members but said all three lawmakers were fully vaccinated.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that people who have been exposed to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 do not have to quarantine if they have been fully vaccinated and show no symptoms. However, they should still monitor for symptoms for 14 days after exposure.
